Run workflow based upon previous date entry in a file and dump the last date into the file

Question

I've five workflows scheduled in the gallery which are running one after another with specified time interval - dependent on each other.

I'm looking to enhance this process so that it does not run on the next day when gallery is down on the current day and require manual recovery of the process.

Looking to create a design in which each workflow dumps an entry to a file and when next day it is supposed to run it checks if there is an entry in the table/file for the previous date then only the current run would commence else it would send an error message and do not run the workflow.

I'm able to dump the date to an excel file but how do we apply the starting condition to the workflows to have a starting check if there is an updated entry then only the workflow should run?

In m workflows there are multiple input's in the start I want to have a pre-start condition.
